On the Season Triangle, the y-axis shows a team's number of wins and the x-axis shows a team's number of losses.
Each gray square is the location of a unique, regular season Win - Loss record.

In the WNBA, a perfect season would end up 40-0. The season path of perfection would take no detours, starting at 0-0, going all the way up the green line to the top left.

Although no team has had a perfect regular season, the 2024 Phoenix Mercury came reasonably close, finishing at 32-8.

The most "average" record in a full WNBA season is 20-20. If a team alternated wins and losses every single game, they'd travel along this yellow staircase of mediocrity.

One team has ended up at 20-20. The team that has, so far, most nearly walked the staircase of mediocrity is the 2024 Indiana Fever.

And lastly, the worst possible outcome for a season would be an unthinkable 0-40. With no interruptions, this rough streak would follow the red line to its very end.

For the 40-game season the 2024 Los Angeles Sparks are currently at the bottom with their 8-32 finish.
